Hello,
I am having problems with my fan settings on my 3rd Generation Nest Thermostat.
If I manually turn on the fan, it works at all speeds (low, med, high)
This problem just started a couple weeks ago and I have not made an changes to my furnace wiring or to the Nest.
What could be the problem?

I am having the same issue, it was working before and started a couple of weeks ago.

Same issue. Any help?

Seems like that the issue is happening after an update that came in November

I agree. I called Nest Support and they didn't agree with me when I suggest this.

Factory resetting my thermostat solved the issue. But it’ll happen again since there is no way to prevent it from updating firmware and Nest support chat was absolutely no help in this regard.

Nest Support asked me to factory reset but unfortunately, it didn't help.

Just had a new Carrier air handler unit installed with multi-speed fan. They installed the Nest Learning Thermostat, and it only will run on low speed. Followed the online instructions to set fan speed, however the option to choose fan speed doesn't exist in the applications (PC, iPhone) or the thermostat itself. 1/19/2022

My fan won't run except on low. There is no option to change the fan speed. The fan control only allows you to set the time you want it to run. I had a Honey... thermostat with the exact same wires in the same letter codes. Wires Y1, Y2, G, OB, Rc, W2 aux, C. Nest Model A0013., With the outside temp about 85" the temp inside would not go down to 76" which I had the Nest set to, in fact it ran all day and lost ground (got warmer in the house). I even removed the filters to allow more air in. About 8" from the vent you could not feel the blowing at the vents. I think it was blowing at low speed. My fan motor in the blower unit only has wiring to the C (Full speed) terminal on the fan (B,C have no wires). Reconnect my old Honey... thermostat at 1:00 A.M. Same exact wiring code letters, put the filters back in place. About 20 minutes I went down to see if it had made a dent to get down from the 78' it was inside to the setting of 74". It was already down to 74" and the heat pump cycled off. The Nest ran all day and the temp inside actually went up! Heat pump w/ aux heat, electric powered, no other fuels. The Nest test confirmed all 7 wires were connected, fan test was good.

I'm having the SAME issue and it all started when I upgraded to the nest.
So you went back to an old LCD screen thermostat? Are there any older LCD thermostats that can be controlled by the phone or wifi?

Same problem the temp will not go down since the nest has been installed. The fan is running slower then before. And i have a G wire and no fan control.

Same here. Brand new Carrier heat pump and air handler system. Honeywell thermostat, fan ran higher speed. Nest thermostat, fan running lower speed. Still cooling but cycles are longer than with Honeywell. Single stage system, so fan speed adjustment not available on Nest

I am having this same issue, previously the fan would change speeds as needed when healing/cooling. I didnt notice till about March that it only runs on low (when set to auto) unless i manually change the speed to med or high.
I have tried the reset (thanks to this forum) but it did not resolve the issue.

My Carrier system has been running OK for year and a half. Suddenly the fan / AC unit does not respond to control. Yesterday and today it would say the fan was running but it was not! Dispalys desired temp but does not cool.

Hi GregSid,
Just one quick final check in here since activity has slowed down. We'll be locking the thread in the next 24 hours, but if you still need help, I would be happy to keep it open. If there's more we can do, just let me know.
Thanks,
